The finale to the workshop was an evening performance in the world renowned venue, Carnegie Hall. In October of 2001, Brandi was chosen as "Canadas young future jazz star" where she headlined as a special guest along with Guido Basso and Carol Wellsmen. Brandi gave her debut performance with the Canada Pops Orchestra at Torontos Centre of the Performing Arts. The Canada Pops Orchestra is comprised of members of the TSO and Toronto jazz artists. The Winner of Sisters in Jazz 2000 Collegiate Competition, Brandi performed with the sextet at the annual IAJE Conference in New Orleans and at the Mary Lou Williams' Jazz Festival held at the J.F.
